We have a clear commitment to environmental sustainability. For this reason, we have a waste management plan supported by the ISO 14001 standard aimed at reducing and organizing the management of waste generated with the help of authorized waste managers. This applies to PET and PP plastic waste, cardboard and paper, wood, water and organic waste used for animal feed, by-products, …
We are also committed to environmental respect and conservation in which we are committed to using biodegradable materials in our products whenever possible, such as wood for the cutlery in our tubs, cane fiber trays to contain fruits and vegetables and the use of FSC cardboard boxes with up to 50% recycled material, with low ink/varnish consumption designs that facilitate their recycling and water consumption in their processing. An internal team of the company assumes in each project the analysis of each process based on the principle of optimization of energy, resources and costs in relation to nature and management efficiency.

They also receive continuous training, such as occupational safety practices and courses on allergens and food intolerances.
At a social level, we promote education through the development and collaboration of sports, educational and solidarity projects. Our presence in events related to popular athletics has been very prominent, providing our products to facilitate recovery and healthy hydration after exercise. Solidarity is a natural part of our raison d’être, so we maintain constant collaborations with the Food Bank of Valencia and various regional charities linked to the care of the elderly and support for disadvantaged families.

with Innovation
We incorporate as an essential guideline of our innovative SME philosophy several R&D&I projects related to the selection and improvement of native pumpkin and locust bean varieties, typical of Valencian gastronomy and culture. The value of these seeds and their fruits is supported by our support throughout the product cycle that brings these products to the country’s large food distribution chains. We also collaborate with institutions such as the UPV and the UCLM providing seeds for projects such as the search for a healthy alternative to common dietary fats in different traditional products of Castilla La Mancha.
Listening to the opinions of customers and suppliers is a constant source of inspiration because they also bring their concept of CSR to their relationship with Peris and our products. It is not only a matter of developing and producing business lines, we add energies and ideas that result in constant improvements in the day-to-day and in the essence of the organizations.
